===============================================================================
1. Introduction [INT]
===============================================================================
This FAQ was made to help gamers that ether never played any crazy taxi game
before or they donít know haw to play it properly. Crazy Taxi 3 mostly didnít
add anything new beside a new city so basically itís the same old game with
little enhancements, thatís why most of the information found in this FAQ is
taken from my previous Crazy Taxi guides and are reformatted and edited to be
a help in this FAQ. Also this FAQ was written from the PC version but itís the
same as Xbox version with little different here and there if any at all, if
you find any big differences send me an e-mail and let me now, cheers.
===============================================================================
2. Version History [VHS]
===============================================================================
Version 0.80 June 16th - December 31th, 2005
Almost everything is done, but still has to do the Crazy Box FAQ.
===============================================================================
3. Crazy Taxi History [CHS]
===============================================================================
In 1999 Hitmaker realised Crazy Taxi in the arcades, it was the first game
of its kind. Fast, speedy and mostly crazy taxi game ever made! The game was
big hit to the arcades and made a lot of money.
In 1/24/2000 the game was ported to Segaís Dreamcast. The port was great,
everything was perfect except for little slow downs here and there. Crazy Taxi
was so successful that Sega decided to make a squeal.
Yes Crazy Taxi 2 hit Dreamcast at 05/28/2001 with little extras such as
picking more than one customer at a time, jumping, new characters, and new
city. As the Dreamcast fall the original was ported to all the systems, PS2,
NGC, Xbox, PC, and GBA. In 04/24/2002 Hitmaker realised Crazy Taxi 3 on
Microsoft Xbox and later ported to the PC.
===============================================================================
4. The Basics
===============================================================================
4-1. Options............................................[BS1]

This time the options screen has fewer options then the other crazy taxi games.

4-2. Controls...........................................[BS2]
----------------------------------------------------------------
The controls can be see/changed in the configuration program thatís saved
in the same directory as the game, it also can be found at the start menu
of window. Example: if you used defaults instillation than the program
address will be C:\Program Files\Sega\Crazy Taxi3\CT3Config.exe.

Just click on any key and assign your own. You can also do the same
with Joypad if you have one.
4-3. Cabbies............................................[BS4]
----------------------------------------------------------------
As you may already know this game is a mix of all the crazy taxi games that
came out, as a result it contents all the cabbies that appeared in previous
games, total 12. They all will look the same at first But as time passes
you will discover little differences.
4-4. Crazy Maneuvers....................................[BS5]
----------------------------------------------------------------
Crazy Manoeuvres get you tips by customers, what are crazy manoeuvres you ask?
Read:
CRAZY DASH:
Release accelerator and brake, then shift back to drive and press
the accelerator at the same time.
Crazy Drift:
Release accelerate, reveres gear, shift back into drive gear and
keep holding drive while accelerating and turning sharply for
a power slide turn. Use this to get a fast turn, this will
get you some combos.
Crazy Through:
Drive through traffic without hitting any thing.
This is hard if you're driving like crazy, but it will get you the most
combos and that will get you more cash. Use it carefully because if you
hit another car you will lose all combos and start from zero again.
4-Crazy stop:
Crazy dash, then hold reverse and brake.
Vary useful for fast stop; use it all the time when stopping.
5-Limit Cut: Crazy dash, crazy drift, and then crazy dash again.
A must use all the time; this will get you to the top speed.
Here are 4 reasons why you should use Crazy Manoeuvres:
1. You will get tips, more money.
2. You may get faster to your drop-off zone.
3. You will look cool and want to use them again.
4. You will get a lot better and score high when done right.
4-5. Licenes............................................[BS6]
----------------------------------------------------------------
Just like the previous games, you get a license after the timer runs out.
The mix result of haw many customers you dropped, haw fast you did it, and
what crazy manoeuvres you did!

===============================================================================
5. Playing Basics
===============================================================================
5-1. Customers...........................................[PB1]
----------------------------------------------------------------
Just like the previews games, customers are every where and some times in
unexpected places like under water! To win you have to end up with a good
rating, to get good rating you need to get big fare. To get this you need
to drop as many customers as you can. Fail to drop a customer to where he
want and you will lose time and not get anything.
There are 4 type of customers; the first one is customer that simply want
to go to another place. They are the most in the game. Second type is a two
customers standing under one fare, they both have one time and etch wants to
go to another place, you have to drop them etch separately in order. The third
type is the same as the sound except now they are 3 And the last type has 4.
For more in-depth information on customer types see the next diagram:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| -COLOR- CUSTOMERs -CIRCLE- -DESTINATION- -DROP ZONE- |
|--------|----------|--------------|-----------------------|---------------|
|Green 1 Biggest one Farthest destination Biggest Zone |
|GreenYellow 1 bigger one Vary far destination +Bigger Zone |
|Yellow 1 Big one More far destination Vary Big Zone|
|Orange 1 Medium one Farther destination Bigger Zone |
|Red 1 Small one Vary close destination Small Zone |
|Drak Blue 2 // // // |
|Black-Blue 3 // // // |
|Light Blue 4 // // // |
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
5-2. Picking-up..........................................[PB2]
----------------------------------------------------------------
As I mentioned earlier every customer stand under a fare icon, its a dollar
sign on a circle. To pick him up stop within the cercal. Here are some tips:
+ When stopping to pick a customer try facing where he want to go.
+ Know who to pick, when you're short on time pick the far destination
customer, otherwise mix.
- Don't stop to far from the customer, this will lose you some time,
as the customer is running to your cab.
- Don't try to hit you're customer, this will make him run away and will
lose you time as the customer is running back to your cab.
5-3. Driving.............................................[PB3]
----------------------------------------------------------------
As soon as the customer jumps in a timer will appear. Now you have to follow
the arrow and deliver the customer to where he wants to go the fastest way
possible. As you drive the customer gives you small tips depending on what
you do. To get many tips try doing Crazy Maneuvers often.
There are three types of a tip: Bronze, Silver, and Gold.
They can get you starting from $0.25 and up to 15.00.
5-4. Droping.............................................[PB4]
----------------------------------------------------------------
Now you have to drop the customer into his drop zone. itís a square.
Stop anywhere in side and the customer will be delivered.
The fastest you get you're customer to his drop zone the better.
You will be given a rating on haw well you did you're job, here they are:
----------------------------------------------------------------
| SPEEDY...........+5 seconds........If the time color is Green |
| NORMAL...........+2 seconds........If the time color is Yellow |
| SLOW..............No Bonus.........If the time color is Red |
| BAD...............No Bonus.........If the time color is Purple |
----------------------------------------------------------------
Get you're customer to his drop zone fast and get SPEEDY, you will
need it to get high rankings.

night city here. Any way itís the best city of all CT games.

8. Tips/Strategies [TPS]
===============================================================================
Some useful tips that will help you be better:

+ Use Crazy Stop every time for a fast stop.
+ Mix long runs with short runs, this will help you get more time.
+ Remember the shortcuts; this will help you save some time.
+ When you feel that you don't have time to drop a customer don't
go to his drop-off, just go to another customer and wait till the
time of the old customer runs of so you can pick the new customer.
+ Know who to pick in the right time, when don't have much time try
picking long run customers.
- Don't pick 2-4 customers allot, you may not get the time to drop them.
